Duck Duck Goose

If you’re looking for a romantic date night spot, Duck Duck Goose is the place. The Dupont Circle restaurant is captivating, with candlelight reflecting off the yellow velvet seats, casting a warm glow throughout the room. The French bistro’s menu, as indicated by the name, is an ode to all things duck. Think french onion soup made with duck confit and a foie gras burger served with duck-fat fries. But the real scene-stealer, ironically, is not the duck at all, but the croissant bread pudding. It comes with layer upon layer of puff pastry drenched in a caramel and chantilly cream and is one of the best bread puddings we’ve ever had.
